Devotees of Sai Baba in Varanasi staged protest against Dwarakapeeth Shankaracharya Swami Swaroopanand, who sparked controversy when he said that Sai Baba should not be worshipped as he was a human being and not a God. Swaroopanand said that worshipping Sai Baba was a conspiracy to divide the Hindus and that people are making money in his name. The angry crowd also burnt effigy of Swaroopanand and shouted slogans against him. Protesters said that the statements are objectionable and they will continue to protest till Swaroopanand takes his words back. Meanwhile, Swaroopanand refused to budge on his statement and said that his followers will teach lesson to those protesting against him.
